N.H.L.: ROUNDUP; Carbonneau Hired By the Stars

Published: May 28, 2002

Guy Carbonneau, a member of three Stanley Cup champions, was named a special assistant to Dallas Stars General Manager Doug Armstrong yesterday.

Carbonneau, who spent the past two seasons as an assistant coach in Montreal, was given a three-year contract.

''When I became general manager, Guy was the name at the top of my list of people to join our management team,'' Armstrong said.

Carbonneau, who played 18 seasons in the N.H.L., announced his retirement as a player in July 2000 after spending his last five seasons with the Stars. He played for Dallas when they won the Stanley Cup in 1999 and also played on Cup-winning teams for Montreal in 1986 and 1993.
